Quality bit of old fashioned engineering, well done Dan 👍

Well done , your'e a clever man....

Nice job there Dan definitely the best option for that repair

My immediate thought was to weld up and bore out with a big end mill. With hindsight I like your repair better. Cheers.

Great video Dan, I would not have known how to fix that, I've learned a lot thank you .

good job

Im doing this now on my MF20 and i finally found a good video that shows installation. Thanks Jim ,m

Did that job before but used a 35 bush 182850m1 part number and weld it in . Got it bored out same as you. Regards John.

A tidy neat job dan! i think that's the best way to have done it, and if it ever got wear in it again in the future, it could be reamed out, and a thinner bronze bush pressed in to your bush. But as you say, it's not likely to see 70years of every day use again! One thing you could have done, is it wouldn't have mattered if the bush had been a tiny bit smaller. Reason is i restored my 1951 TED quite a few years ago now, and i stripped the axel down in pieces to blast and paint, and when it came to taking the axel pin out. I had to tap it out from inside the bracket, and when the pin came out, it had not one bit of wear in the pin, bracket and axel bush! I got my fergie from a chap who had known the history, and had not had a hard life, so the axel was very tight And still original pin and axel bush, and on reasembly was case of tapping pin back in and the 11/16 bolt to secure, but that's a fine job!👌

Such a satisfying video to watch. Could have been twice as long and still as enjoyable Dan.

Your way looks like the best way. Nice job.

Great VT Dan - definitely the way you chose to do the repair, great job!

That is a superb repair, nothing wrong with improving a design either.

Happy days anew video of my favourite series. Great video Didn’t think the bore was slow to watch 😅. Thanks for sharing perfect fix and the video wasn’t long enough! Great stuff 👍

Very nice 👍

Good to have VT back. You're a clever chap Dan, very impressive.

Great video thanks

Working with Millimeters.... Great job, Dan the Man!👍👌 You just have to check if the axle will still fit in between. I would done it the same way, great Job!

Great result Dan definitely the best procedure for that repair 👌

Great video Dan loved it really interesting kept me glued to the screen your some hand fixing old tractors.

Have you allowed for the axle fitting in ? That bush is probably 10mm thicker towards the axle ? Will you have to shave the face of the axle ?

Brilliant and informative video Dan 👍👍👍

Great successful challenge Dan, I think you chose the best procedure. So looking forward to the next video.

Great video, I would have gone for the ame option as you, IF I had the skillsets, which I don't.

Nice job, your a engineer as well as a farmer 👍

Very impressive Dan well done !!! 🙂👏, all those reading of Model Engineering magazines over the years have payed off, the 4th reason your looking for is you enjoy it 😁, I think Clarence Fud-Weasel would approve. Missing his videos to. 🤔👍

Lovely little job, I’ll send ours down 😁😆. Think she’d have gone down the road with me🫣🥴

Brilliant fix. Good machining skills. Welding looked tidy aswell. Nice work Dan

Well done 👍 Great job and great video

Good job there👍would have gone with this solution also

Personally I'd have done exactly what you did

Spot on job Dan 👍👍

👍👍👌👌💪💪👏👏🙏🙏🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

So great to see another video

Impressive 😅

How many tractor you have

Some beautiful fergies there 👍

Nice! But the best model for last, the 240!

Have to get your 35 looking new like those ones hope everything is going OK haven't seen a video for a while guess your busy with winter work

👍👍🇮🇪🇮🇪👌👌💪💪👏👏🙏🙏

A 399 ? Didn't your one get rather hot ??? 🤔 did you have a good look at the 590 show?? 🙂👍

Looks like they need a 698 in that lineup….🥴😏😆

What happened the top of the tank ? Cleaned with a brick??

I think it is in great condition. What a difference that wash made Dan! I wonder whether classic tractors in original condition might be worth more than restored ones one day.

Glad this old one came up to watch Dan!😊

Tratorista muito lento tem botar pra torar lerdesa do cão

I was rewatching this video, I noticed on your lower lift arms, you have the connecting links in the middle of the 3 holes. My 240 is this way as well. However I see a lot of them online it’s in the hole nearest to the diff. Why is this? Any advise is appreciated

I don't even need to do this job on my MF135, but when this video showed up for me, I was fascinated to see how to do it. Thanks also for showing what happens inside the gearbox when selecting the PTO lever. I can now imagine in my head, what is happening when I do shift the lever. In nearly 30 years of owning mine, that has had lots of regular use, I've not had to do any jobs on the gearbox (apart from an oil change), clutch or back end, so not had any need to take the top cover off to see inside, though I know basically what's in there of course.

Our neighbouring farmer had 3000 and 3600 series Massey tractors in the late '90s. They were the first tractors I really fell in love with. Something about the shape and proportions is just right. Love them. So glad you've got one in your collection Dan 😊 they are a very nostalgic tractor for me!

Dan just on the off chance would you you any one in the uk with double chop harvester parts ?
